A court in France has ruled that a man who died from a heart attack (đau tim) after having sex during a business trip had suffered a work-related accident (tai nạn liên quan đến công việc) and that his employer was liable (có trách nhiệm/nghĩa vụ về pháp lý).

The man, who was identified in court documents only as Xavier, traveled in 2013 to the Loiret region in central France as a security technician (kỹ thuật viên an ninh) for the rail (đường ray) engineering company TSO. After work one night, he had sex with a woman at her house before returning to his hotel. He later died from a heart attack said to have been linked to the encounter.

...French law (luật pháp) considers any accident (bất kỳ tai nạn nào) that happens on a business trip (chuyến công tác) to be work-related (liên quan đến công việc), even if the activity (hoạt động) is not closely related to the employee’s mission (nhiệm vụ, sứ mệnh).

The court in Paris said the law protected employees engaged in everyday activities for the entirety of any such trip, unless they interrupted planned business activities. It heard from the insurance fund that sex was part of everyday life, “like having a shower or a meal,” (là một phần hoạt động thường ngày, như tắm và ăn) and that the employee, therefore, was covered by work-related protections while on the trip.

Finding that TSO could not show a schedule (lịch trình công tác) proving that the man was supposed to be working at the time, the court upheld the insurance fund claim.

The world famous Cerne Abbas Giant in Dorset is 180ft tall and will be re-chalked by hand by dozens of volunteers over the next two weeks. It has been a feature (nét đặc biệt, điểm đặc trưng) of the area since the 17th century and is in need of a gentle polish and tickle to restore it – including the 36ft erect penis. Since its last refresh in 2008, the weather has taken its toll and weeds have encroached (xâm lấn, xâm phạm) on the Giant, blurring its previously sharp chalky outline. Tonnes of the white stuff extracted from a nearby quarry (nơi khai thác đá, mỏ đá) will be tightly packed in by hand to the existing 1,509ft outline of the figure to ensure it remains visible for miles around. The Giant was given to the National Trust to look after in July 1920 by the Pitt-Rivers family, and the Trust is planning a year of celebrations next year to mark the centenary (lễ kỷ niệm một trăm năm).

Kissimmee Police said the woman removed her badge (huy hiệu; biểu hiện, vật tượng trưng; dấu hiệu), uniform (đồng phục) and gun when she went to the bathroom at Kissimmee Charter Academy to make the video for her husband in December.

The video was unearthed after the Osceola County Sheriff's Office investigated a personal incident with the SRO and her husband.

The incident was filmed at the Marina Ibiza on the Balearic island and was later widely shared on social media but the pair are now being threatened with a fine for reckless driving. A city council spokesperson said the authorities hope to track down (truy ra) the culprits (thủ phạm) soon as “there are not many cars like this in Ibiza”.

As the nude woman kicks her legs up in the air and twerks her bum to the blaring music, stunned onlookers film the bizarre scenes. Local media said the couple could be fined up to 500 euros ($550) with six points on the driver’s license for reckless driving.

The Clitarchus hookeri is native to New Zealand but migrated to the UK some time between 1910 and 1935, catching a ride on shiploads of New Zealand plants that were transported to the subtropical Tresco Abbey Garden on the Scilly Isles islands off the coast of Cornwall.

Biologists from Massey University in New Zealand’s North Island have discovered that some time in the last 100 years the Scilly isles population of Clitarchus hookeri gave up having sex and start to reproduce asexually. The local population of Scilly Isles stick insects is now entirely female.

the frequent (tần suất) use of emojis with potential (tiềm năng) dates (người hẹn hò) is linked to not only having sex more often but also to a more active and successful dating life.

These conclusions come from two separate studies conducted by researchers at The Kinsey Institute.

...People’s reasons for using emojis varied and included wanting to give their messages more personality (mang tính cá nhân), making it easier to express (bày tỏ) feelings (cảm xúc), making communication (chuyện trò, trao đổi) faster than typing, and because it’s trendy (in other words, because everyone else is doing it).

The frequent use of emojis predicted going on more first dates over the past year, as well as more frequent sexual activity.

A man with the Tactra implant in his member can push it up for intercourse (giao hợp) and manually pushed it down when it is not in use. The prosthesis (sự thay ghép, bộ phận giả) is made of dual-layer silicone in order to give it a natural feel (cảm giác tự nhiên), with a Nitinol core (lõi) for rigidity (cứng rắn, cứng nhắc, cứng ngắc :) and durability.

* Proserpina is an ancient goddess whose story is the basis of a myth of Springtime. She is the Roman equivalent of the Greek goddess Persephone. Proserpina was subsumed (xếp vào, gộp vào) by the cult (hệ thống thờ cúng tôn giáo, sự sùng bái hoặc ngưỡng mộ đối với ai/cái gì) of Libera, an ancient fertility goddess, wife of Liber. Her name comes from proserpere meaning "to emerge." She is a life–death–rebirth deity.

She was the daughter of Ceres and Jupiter, and was described as a very enchanting (bỏ bùa mê, làm say mê, vui thích) young girl.

Venus, in order to bring love to Pluto, sent her son Amor also known as Cupid to hit Pluto with one of his arrows. Proserpina was in Sicily, at the fountain of Arethusa near Enna, where she was playing with some nymphs (nữ thần (sông núi, cây cỏ)) and collecting flowers, when Pluto came out from the volcano (núi lửa) Etna with four black horses. He abducted (bắc cóc) her in order to marry her and live with her in Hades, the Greco-Roman Underworld (âm phủ, âm ty, địa ngục; bộ phận xã hội sống bằng tội ác và những thói hư tật xấu; tầng lớp cặn bã của xã hội, tầng lớp đáy của xã hội; thế giới tội ác, thế giới vô đạo đức; bọn đầu trộm đuôi cướp), of which he was the ruler (kẻ cai trị). Notably, Pluto was also her uncle, being Jupiter's (and Ceres's) brother. She is therefore Queen of the Underworld (Nữ hoàng Địa ngục).

This sculpture (bức tượng điêu khắc) is found in the Gardens of Chateua Versailles, France.

That’s right – now you can grab a Tenga to go any time of the day or night, without any judgement (không phải chịu ánh mắt dò xét, soi mói) from human store clerks (nhân viên bán hàng). It’s just you and a row of vending machines, all packed with the brand’s popular Cup and Spinner products, in a variety of colours, along with the Tenga Night Charge energy drink, to keep you going all night long.

To further protect interested customers from the prying eyes of the public, Tenga have installed the new machines in a private space behind a noren curtain that makes it look more like a public bathhouse (phòng tắm công cộng) than a sex-toy purchasing area.

...In a completely irrelevant move, Déjà Vu Services, Nevada’s largest adult entertainment operator, is bringing about a dozen dancers along with the strip club on wheels, the “Strippermobile.”

“Come September 20, we’ll be there,” Director of Operations Ryan Carlson said, “We know that most Americans know: that strippers (vũ nữ thoát y) make any event better, and this one will be no exception (không là ngoại lệ).”

Déjà vu is approaching the event as the “Ultimate Alien Tailgate Party,” with the hopes of entertaining everyone before and after the blitz and encourages everyone to ‘make it rain.’ ("hãy để mưa rơi")

The revolutionary procedure is set to transform the lives of thousands of women who suffer severe side effects (hiệu ứng phụ) of the menopause (mãn kinh), such as osteoporosis (chứng loãng xương) and heart problems (các vấn đề về tim).

The 1,120 male and female participants, all 65 or younger at the time of their first heart attack (cơn đau tim) in 1992 or 1993, were tracked by researchers through 2015.

By then, 524 of them had died.

Of the survivors, those who had done the deed multiple times a week were 27% less likely to die during the study period. Those who got lucky once a week were 12% less likely to die, and those who scored some tail infrequently were 8% less likely to die.

Post-heart attack intercourse was even more vital for a longer life, researchers found.

Doing it weekly following a heart attack decreased mortality rates (tỷ lệ tử vong) by 37%, more than once a week meant a 33% survival bump, and less than once a week made for a 28% increased life expectancy (tuổi thọ), compared to participants who never got any at all after their heart attack...

The international chain of convenience stores (chuỗi cửa hàng tiện dụng) Circle K has offered a public apology in Mexico after it tweeted an offer which was widely decried as sexist (phân biệt giới tính) on social media.
